Chapter 58: Inside Chencang City

Deng Yulong didn't let Han Xin pass the word to Zhang Zhi at all, this was what Han Xin deliberately said in order to end the battle as soon as possible.

Seeing that Zhang Zhi was still hesitating, Han Xin said again: "Chen Cangcheng has been broken, no one can stop the King of Han from seizing Guanzhong, even if you don't surrender, you can't change the ending, your father will be your son, leaving his life to open up more branches for your Zhang family." ”

Before setting out on the expedition, Han Xin learned some information about Zhang Han, Sima Xin, and Dong Peng from Deng Yulong, and Zhang Han's younger brother Zhang Ping was indeed the only son of Zhang Zhi.

Zhang Zhi himself cherishes his life more, and Han Xin's words talked about his heart.

However, Zhang Zhi was still a little hesitant and had not made a final decision for a while.

Han Xin urged: "Thousands of Han troops have come in from the West Gate, and they will be killed soon, and if you become a prisoner, you will have to be beheaded to show the public." Hurry up and order the soldiers to surrender, or you'll have no chance. ”

At this time, Zhang Zhi finally made up his mind and said loudly: "Pass my order and order the whole army to surrender to the Han army." ”

In the original history, there were people from the Zhang Han family who surrendered to Liu Bang, and this Zhang Zhi was one of them, and was later named General Badong.

At this time, the siege was still going on.

Zhang Zhi's herald quickly ran up the city wall to give the order.

"General Zhang has an order, lay down your arms and surrender to the Han army!"

"General Zhang has an order, lay down your arms and surrender to the Han army!"

……

The soldier shouted Zhang Zhi's order.

The morale of the Yongjun army itself was not very high, and after hearing the order, they retreated to the innermost part of the broad city wall, threw down their weapons and knelt down to surrender.

Seeing this, the besieging soldiers who rushed to the city wall did not attack the surrendered soldiers, and Deng Yulong's military order was very binding on the soldiers, and no one dared to kill the surrendered soldiers.

At the same time, Guan Ying led the army to rush over and rushed to the bottom of the stairs, seeing this situation, he knew that Han Xin had already succeeded.

"Quickly put down your weapon..."

The Yong army in the area of the East City Gate also surrendered.

The soldiers opened the city gates, and the Han army outside the city poured in like a tidal wave, quickly taking control of the city.

Some soldiers came up to take down Zhang Zhi and Yao Tong, and the soldiers of the Yongjun army were all escorted to the other side to be guarded.

Seeing that the fighting on the city wall stopped and the city gate was opened, the Han officers and soldiers outside the city knew that our side had won.

Cao Shen and Lu Juan led the army to Chencang, they were responsible for the siege of the city, so they naturally had to go into the city to understand the situation and effectively control the whole city.

The drums of war and the shouts of the soldiers ceased, and they turned to the cheers of victory.

The generals of the Han army also laughed and laughed, and Deng Yulong and Liu Bang were very happy.

Deng Yulong is happy about what he has achieved, from his previous life to the present, he has rarely been so happy.

Outside the east gate of Chencang, it has become a sea of joy.

After cheering for a while, Liu Bang and Deng Yulong also led troops into the city.

In Chencang City, Cao Shen and Lu Xuan, who entered the city first, learned about the situation from the baby.

Guan Ying started from the beginning of the army, and when it came to adventurous progress in the mountains, even Cao Shen and Lu Juan were thrilled to hear it.

When it came to the sneak attack on Chencang, it was partly narrated by Han Xin, and the two generals were deeply impressed by the general's use of troops.

Subsequently, Liu Bang, Deng Yulong and others also entered the city, and Guan Ying repeated the battle process.

When it came to the back, when he learned that Han Xin had taken it upon himself to say that the general had given him another military order, Deng Yulong frowned, but he still recognized his performance.

Han Xin said this, as long as Deng Yulong did not deny it, of course, it would be regarded as his masterpiece.

Liu Bang said to Deng Yulong: "Deng Aiqing, you are like a god with soldiers, and you are a rare thousand-mile horse, which is the luck of the Han Dynasty." ”

Whether it is training soldiers or commanding troops, Deng Yulong has performed very well, exceeding Liu Bang's expectations, and it is only now that Liu Bang fully recognizes him as a general.

Deng Yulong responded respectfully: "King Han, it is the duty of the minister to make the minister a general, and to attack the city for you." ”

Liu Bang smiled.

Then, Deng Yulong called Han Xin aside.

Before Deng Yulong could ask, Han Xin took the initiative to say: "General, the last general has thought of a good way, but he is worried that General Guan Ying will not agree, so he borrowed your military order; The last general hoped to end the battle of Chencang as soon as possible and reduce the casualties of our army as much as possible, so after taking Zhangzhi, he also borrowed the general's military order. The last general did this for the sake of the Han army and for you, the general. ”

"You..."Deng Yulong shook his head.

Han Xin saw my Deng Yulong's reaction, and was shocked in his heart, and said hurriedly: "The last general is in charge of his own affairs, and I also ask the general to forgive the last general for the sake of meritorious service." ”

Deng Yulong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, for your good performance, I won't blame you this time." ”

In fact, Deng Yulong was not dissatisfied at all, just now he shook his head and admired Han Xin's strong sense of fame, and he also knew that at least half of Han Xin's reason for doing this was to make more military achievements, but he didn't say it, and there was no need to say it.

Listening to the general's words, Han Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Back to Liu Bang's side, Deng Yulong ordered someone to escort Zhang Zhi and Yao Tong up.

Deng Yulong said to Liu Bang: "King Han, Zhang Zhi knows the current affairs and orders the soldiers to surrender, which not only reduces the casualties of our Han army, but also allows more Yongjun soldiers to survive and surrender to our army, which is a meritorious performance, and I hope that the King of Han will forgive him." ”

In fact, as the commander of the three armies, he has full authority to deal with enemy generals, but Deng Yulong tried not to exhaust the power given by Liu Bang.

In modern times, he has learned a lot about the ways of kings and rulers in history, and also learned about the ways of many civil and military generals.

For example, Nian Qianyao of the Qing Dynasty used the power given to him by Yongzheng to the extreme, and finally ended up with a tragic ending.

Liu Bang said: "You are the commander of the three armies, it is up to you to decide." ”

As long as it is not involved in major issues, Liu Bang still does not interfere with Deng Yulong.

Deng Yulong said: "Zhang Zhi, you accept the persuasion conveyed by General Ben Han Xin and order your subordinates to surrender, which is a meritorious performance." Now that Guanzhong has not been pacified, the Han army still needs to face your uncle and father, and you must be imprisoned for the time being, and after our Han army captures Guanzhong, we will reward you for meritorious deeds, and naturally you will be free. ”

He then faced Liu Bang and said, "King Han, I don't know if this is appropriate?" ”

Liu Bang nodded and said, "The general handled it appropriately. ”

Deng Yulong immediately ordered Zhang Zhi to be locked up in a room alone, but he could not be treated as a prisoner of war, and he had to be treated as a martial artist in the Han army who had temporarily lost his freedom.

After Zhang Zhi was taken away, it was Yao Tong's turn.

Yao Tong said: "General, I also surrendered, and the Han army will not kill the surrendered soldiers." ”

Originally, he thought that he might be executed, but when he saw Zhang Zhi being forgiven, he felt that he should be able to be forgiven.

Deng Yulong said coldly: "Under normal circumstances, the Han army does not kill and surrender troops. ”

"General Xie... General Xie..."

Yao Tong kowtowed to Deng Yulong.

I only heard Deng Yulong say coldly: "However, you Yao Tong is not suitable for the general situation. At the time of Dasanguan, you abandoned the corporal and fled, and the Han army did not want such soldiers. ”

Then he shouted: "Come on, behead Yao Tong on the spot." ”

Immediately soldiers came.

"General, let me go back to farming! Please......." Yao Tong begged bitterly.

Deng Yulong was too lazy to pay attention to such people, and the soldiers quickly executed him.
